Answer:

Power, P =9800 W

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the elevator, m = 500kg

It is raised to a height of 20 m in 10 seconds

Power is defined as the work done per unit time.

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

Work done is given by :

W=mgh

h is the height

So, P=\dfrac{mgh}{t}

P=\dfrac{500\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 20\ m}{10\ s}

P = 9800 Watts

Hence, the power of the motor is 9800 W. The correct option is (b).

<u>ALL of the following work assumes NO AIR RESISTANCE:</u>

1). an object moving under the influence of only gravity, and not in orbit;  its horizontal velocity is constant, and its vertical motion is accelerated downward at 9.8 m/s²

2). a parabola

3). Horizontal: velocity is constant, acceleration is zero. . . . Vertical: acceleration is 9.8 m/s² downward, velocity depends on whether it was launched, thrown up, thrown down, dropped, etc.

4). a). the one that was thrown horizontally; b). both  hit the ground at the same time; c). both hit the ground with the same vertical velocity

5). a). zero; b). zero; c). gravity ... 9.8 m/s² down; d). 3.06 seconds; e). 4.38 m/s; f). 30 m/s g). no; gravity has no effect on horizontal motion

6). a). 1.8 seconds;   b). 13.1 meters;   c). 17.6 m/s down;   d). 7.3 m/s; gravity has no effect on horizontal motion

7). 45 m/s

8). without air resistance, the ball is traveling horizontally at 13 km/hr, and it lands back in your hand

9). a). 4.49 m/s;  b). 29.7 m/s

10). 7.24 meters

11).  700 meters

12).  A). 103.7 meters ( ! she's in big trouble ! );     B).  17.5 meters

ki77a [65]

Answer:

read this it might help some

When a moving object collides with a stationary object of identical mass, the stationary object encounters the greater collision force. When a moving object collides with a stationary object of identical mass, the stationary object encounters the greater momentum change.
